The split level accommodation includes reception rooms on both the lower and upper floors taking full advantage of the views from the front and side with large double glazed windows, note also the mezzanine study area approached via a spiral staircase. The breakfast kitchen has been attractively refitted in recent times, there are three bath/shower rooms two of which are en-suite. An oil fired heating system is installed with radiators as indicated below and there is UPVC double glazing to the windows. A burglar alarm is installed. The layout does afford a degree of flexibility in how the accommodation can be utilised. The predominantly lawned grounds are a fine feature of the house and extend to over half an acre, adjoining fields at one side and at the rear. A very secluded setting within the very heart of the village.
